Class: Passage

Defined in: passages/passage.ts:29

Base class for all passage types in the text game engine.

Passages represent different screens or scenes in the game. Each passage has a unique identifier and type, and is automatically registered with the Game when instantiated.

Subclasses must implement the display() method to define how the passage renders.

Example​

class CustomPassage extends Passage {
  constructor(id: string) {
    super(id, 'custom');
  }

  display(props) {
    return { content: 'Custom passage content' };
  }
}
